Boshart Uppme-12 1-1/4 In. Male 90 Deg. Polypropylene Insert Elbow

The Boshart UPPME-12 is a 1-1/4 inch male 90-degree polypropylene insert elbow designed to change pipe direction in polyethylene (PE) pipe systems. This fitting combines a barb insert on one end with a male pipe thread (MPT) connection on the other, making it ideal for applications where you need to transition from PE pipe to threaded fittings while achieving a right-angle bend in your plumbing or irrigation system.

Insert elbows like this one are engineered specifically for buried cold water applications, including residential irrigation systems, lawn sprinkler installations, water service lines, and swimming pool plumbing. The barb connection joins securely to polyethylene pipe using stainless steel clamps, while the male pipe thread end accepts standard threaded fittings. This versatile fitting works in both professional and DIY plumbing projects.
